1 Basics of Oil Condition Monitoring Through Oil Analysis Marian Kiley Key Account Manager Analysts, Inc. 09/16/2016

2 What is Oil Analysis Oil analysis is the sampling and laboratory analysis of a lubricant's properties, suspended contaminants, and wear debris. Oil analysis is performed as part of a routine condition monitoring program to provide meaningful and accurate information on the lubricant and overall condition of the machine. Oil analysis provides a view of the condition of the oil along with the machine wear! 2

3 Analysts Testing Capabilities DIESEL FUELS Fuel analysis programs enable you to anticipate problems and ensure reliable equipment operations GREASES Grease testing can evaluate wear, consistency, contamination and oxidation in grease lubricated systems COOLANTS Coolant analysis takes the guesswork out of cooling system maintenance LUBE OILS Monitoring equipment condition with oil analysis controls maintenance planning; impacting the bottom line Oil Condition Monitoring Optimal equipment performance starts with consistent machinery fluid analysis Any company that operates equipment using oil, fuel or coolant can benefit DEF s MWF s Metalworking fluids can be complex formulations that require analysis to monitor multiple critical fluid properties Ensure SCR systems operate efficiently with DEF Testing 3

4 What your doctor needs Blood Testing Can: Recognize How Well Organs are Functioning Distinguish Different Causes of Complaints Diagnose Diseases Identify RISKS for Known Conditions Confirm if Prescribed Medication is Working Your doctor can only diagnose the above if you provide the necessary information: Height Gender Weight Symptoms Age 4

5 What the laboratory needs Oil Analysis Can: Recognize How Well Equipment Components are Operating Distinguish Different Causes of Wear Diagnose Fluid Degradation Identify RISKS for Known Conditions Confirm if Corrective Maintenance Actions are Working The laboratory can only diagnose the above if you provide crucial information: Machine Mfg/Model Component Type Oil Type Symptoms Hours on Machine & Oil 5

6 Oil Analysis + Vibration Oil Condition Monitoring (OCM) & Vibration are Complimentary Predictive Tools Depending on the Failure Mode, One Technique May Provide Earlier Warning Combined, OCM and Vibration Increase Equipment Reliability Bearing fault detection of early bearing failure (750 machines) The pie chart shows the impressive results. Of the 750 machines in the condition monitoring program, bearing faults were first detected 67 percent of the time using oil analysis and 60 percent of the time with vibration analysis. Both technologies converged to catch bearing faults 27 percent of the time. It was noted that while oil analysis caught the faults 40 percent of the time ahead of vibration, eventually vibration analysis would have detected many of these faults as the issue progressed. 6

7 Oil Sampling Program Goals & Objectives Oil Analysis GOALS Condition Monitoring Fluid Selection Comparison Quality Control Establish Safe & Proper Drain Intervals Filtration Monitoring Special Requirements 7

8 Oil Sampling Program Goals & Objectives Oil Analysis Objectives Prevent Lubrication and Wear Related Failures Reduce Maintenance Costs Decrease Unplanned Shutdowns Increase Equipment Life 8

9 Equipment Selection SELECTING EQUIPMENT Start Small Based on Equipment Criticality Sample Frequently Monthly / Quarterly Review and Act on Reports Expand Program to Additional Equipment 9

10 Equipment Information CRUCIAL INFORMATION Unit / Compartment ID Mfg. Make & Model Oil Information Manufacturer Brand ISO Grade Equipment Type / Application Feedback Service Hours Equipment & Oil 10

11 1 1 THE SAMPLING PROCESS 11

12 Recommended Sampling Methods 1 2 Petcock or sampling valve (QSS ) prior to oil filter Vacuum pump/tubing at dipstick or oil fill Sump reservoir or drain 12

13 Recommended Sampling Methods Bellow Bottle 1 3 QSS Valve Vacuum Pump Oil Drain 13

14 Sampling Precautions 1 4 Avoid points where lube flow is restricted or where contaminants and wear debris settle out or are filtered out Sample component while operating or within 30 minutes after shutdown Visually check sampling materials for any contamination before use Containers are shipped clean and should be stored and transported with cleanliness in mind Assure clean technique when using sampling pumps 14

15 1 5 ROUTINE TESTING 15

16 Routine Industrial Equipment Oil Testing Spectrochemical Analysis 21 elements including wear metals, contaminates and additives Viscosity and Equivalent ISO grade Water Measures a lubricants resistance to flow Reported in % (non-critical applications) Reported in ppm (sensitive / critical applications) Acid Number (AN) / Base Number (BN) Lubricant Degradation Service Life ISO Particle Count System Cleanliness Contamination Control 16

17 Spectrochemical Metals Analysis (ppm) 17

18 Spectrochemical Metals Analysis (ppm) 18

19 Viscosity VISCOSITY - Measures a lubricants resistance to flow 19

20 Water Presence of Water Reported in % Reported in ppm 20

21 Base Number 2 1 Base Number / BN Monitors the Reserve Alkalinity of the lubricant Measured against new oil for % of depletion Typical causes of BN decrease: Elevated Operating Temperature Oxidation / Nitration Acids Inadequate Combustion High Sulfur Fuels Over-Extended Service Time 21

22 Acid Number 2 2 Acid Number / AN Monitored for increased level Evaluated against increase above new oil level Typical Causes AN Increase: Elevated operating temperature Oxidative degradation Additive transformations Environmental contamination Improper oil type or mixture Over-extended service time 22

23 ISO Particle Count PARTICLE COUNT Measures particle size and volume 23

24 ISO Cleanliness Code Total >4µ = 6720 Total >6µ = 432 Total >14µ = 52 ISO CODE: 20/16/13 24

25 Data Interpretation 2 5 In the Laboratory 25

26 Interpretation Objectives Sample Results / Data Interpretation: Classify overall condition and severity Monitor & reflect wear and corrosion modes Verification of proper lubricant in service Degree and Identity of contaminants Assess lubricant serviceability Assess filtration effectiveness Suggest condition causes and reasons Recommend diagnostic or corrective actions Answer specific questions from customer 26

27 Oil Sample Condition Classifications Sample Status: NORMAL: MONITOR: ABNORMAL: CRITICAL: Lubricant and equipment conditions are acceptable. Continue routine sampling schedule. Noteworthy presence or change; action usually not warranted. Atypical results. Consideration, diagnostics and/or corrective action is necessary. Conditions present which will reduce system life. Immediate corrective action is necessary. 27

28 Evaluations Require Data Input Evaluation Considerations: Individual Equipment Specifics: o Make, Model, Application, and Fluid Capacity Operating Environment & Duty Cycles Sample Operating Data: o (Unit and Lube Service Times, Oil Added, etc.) Customer Specific Requirements Customer Notations and Feedback Historical Trends Comparison with Similar Equipment. 28

29 What Are My Guidelines / Limits? Sources For Applied Evaluations: Types Of Applied Limits: Equipment (OEM) Guidelines Lubricant Mfg Recommendations Customer Specific Requirements Legislated Environmental Limits Experience Historical Data of Similar Equipment Set Values - Minimum or Maximum Defined Ranges with Severity Assigned Trend Analysis for Change Combinations of the Above 29

30 Set Value Limits Rules / Qualifications 1. Mfg, Model, Application 2. Lubricant Required = ISO Frequency = 2500 Hours Minimum 40 C, cst - 10% ~ New Oil Abnormal Maximum 40 C, cst + 15% ~ New Oil Abnormal Maximum Water, ppm 500 (.05+) Abnormal Maximum Silicon, ppm + 15 ppm ~ New Oil Abnormal Environmental Chlorine, ppm 1000 maximum Hazardous 30

31 Why Use Trend Analysis? Compare Set Limits vs. Trend Analysis 1) Two Identical Gearboxes 2) Same Age and Operating Modes 3) Samples Taken at Same Intervals 4) Use Set Limit 100 ppm for Iron 31

32 Set Limit vs. Trend Evaluate Against 100 ppm Maximum (Iron) Gearbox Number 1 Sample Iron Set Limit Trend 1 91 Normal Normal 2 98 Normal Normal Abnormal Normal 32

33 Set Limit vs. Trend Evaluate Against 100 ppm Maximum (Iron) Sample Gearbox Number 2 Iro n Set Limit Trend 1 33 Normal Normal 2 45 Normal Normal 3 96 Normal Abnormal 33

34 Iron, ppm Trend Comparison Gearbox 1 Gearbox Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3 34

35 What Is A PPM? #1 (standard size) 1 Liter Steel paper clip ISO 68 Turbine Oil Wt.: 419 mg Sp. gr: = 483 ppm Fe 1 mg/l = 1ppm 35

36 Data Interpretation When A Change Occurs: Look for Corresponding Cause or Reason Increased wear: Is dirt or water present? Look for a Confirming Related Change Increased viscosity: Has oxidation or acid level also increased? Check additives for mixture Look for Identifying Components Water + Na (Sodium) + Mg (Magnesium) = Brine Water + Na (Sodium) + B (boron) or K (Potassium) = Cooling System Leak 36

37 Major Change Without a Corresponding Reason RESAMPLE! 1. Confirm Analysis Results 2. Ensure Component Identification 3. Ensure Representative Sample 37
